Doesn't look like a X to me - the STi is about 3 metres away from the apex - understeer FTW!!!

Found this over at NAISOC tonight: http://subarushawn.wordpress.com/

Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy68BwT26l0

Even though it is the UDM car, it doesn't look too bad!

Is it just me, or would that front end look much better without fog lights?!

Agreed.

The front end looks so much better with the wider guards too, it almost looks tough from some angles.

No matter what you do to it. The fact is it has a smaller boot and that shitty quarter panel window which just takes away the whole sedan feel and look.

I think it looks crap. I would buy a Hatch before I got what they now call a sedan.

It is such a shame. I wonder if subaru will ever come back to where it should be.

I think quite the opposite Tim. I think the sedan has reinvigorated the STi 'boxer' image again. I quite like it, looks tough. Impreza's have never been a beautiful looking car, but they were always aggressive. Im a big fan of the sedan.

Yeah I guess every one has a different feel about it.

I think the STI Hatch has a more aggressive feel to it. I like the hatch shaping.

I agree that the rear quarter window does look rather tacky, surely they could have made some changes to it.

I've had a look at the boot offered in the 2010 Sedan which I must admit isn't huge, but it will be sufficient for the needs of some people.

Still haven't heard anything from Subaru regarding expected delivery dates, but I did find this in the rss feed.

Subaru Managing Director, Nick Senior, said: “With our widebody Impreza WRX and revised STI due in early September, we’re getting strong showroom interest right across the Subaru range.
